Plastic Flowers

Summertime for my obsession
Winter for my thoughts
All around us mongrels and legends
Faces in the dark

You keep on staring straight at the sun
You've got nothing to lose
Got nowhere to run

Plastic flowers don't know why
Plastic flowers make me cry
Plastic flowers never die

Fall is coming for our deception
Springtime is for our hopes
Ghosts of our lovers in every corner
Limbs going up in smoke

Plastic flowers, Lord I try
Plastic flowers, not to cry
Plastic flowers never die
